Audio-Only Device
If you wish to connect an audio-only device to the TV, such
as an audio CD player or an MP3 player, follow these instruc-
tions. The side panel offers the most convenient jacks for this
purpose, but you can use the rear-panel jacks as well.
Insert an unused RCA-style connector into the
1.
VIDEO/Y
jack. The presence of this connector acti-
vates the TV’s Auto Input Sensing feature.
When the
2.
Auto Input Sensing
screen displays,
name the new input
CD/Audio
or
MP3 Player
.
Connect left (white) and right (red) audio cables from
3.
AUDIO OUT
on the device to
AUDIO L
and
R
on the TV.
Keep the connector in the
4.
VIDEO/Y
jack while using
the audio-only device.
